t.    "PRINCIPAL SUM" means Five Million Eight Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars
      ($5,840,000.00). The outstanding Principal Sum during the Construction

2. PROMISE TO PAY. For value received, and intending to be legally bound, the
undersigned Borrower promises to pay to the order of the Bank at its office
identified above in lawful money of the United States and in immediately
available funds, the Principal Sum or so much thereof as may be advanced, plus
interest on the unpaid portion of the Principal Sum, all amounts required for
Escrow, and all Expenses at the times and in the manner herein set forth.

3. PAYMENT OF INTEREST. Except after the occurrence and continuance of a
Default, so long as any portion of the Principal Sum remains outstanding
hereunder, the unpaid Principal Sum outstanding hereunder shall accrue interest
at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR Rate. Borrower shall pay such interest to the

4. MAXIMUM LEGAL RATE. It is the intent of the Bank and Borrower that in no
event shall such interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate
permitted by applicable law (the "Maximum Legal Rate"). Solely to the extent
necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal
Rate, any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial
interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and
automatically canceled and if received by the Bank shall be refunded to
Borrower.

5. DEFAULT RATE. If a Default occurs, the interest rate on the unpaid Principal
Amount shall immediately be automatically increased to two percent (2%) per year
above the Base Rate (the "Default Rate"), and any judgment entered hereon or
otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall
bear interest at such Default Rate. Any judgment entered hereon or otherwise in
connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall bear interest at
such Default Rate. No failure to impose or delay in imposing this Default Rate
shall be construed as a waiver by the Bank of its right to collect, and
Borrower's obligation to pay, interest at the Default Rate effective as of the
date of maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or
otherwise).

6. DETERMINATION OF PERMANENT LOAN PERIOD. When the Borrower delivers to the
Bank the notice pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Loan Agreement, the Borrower
shall elect, in writing, a five (5) year or ten (10) year term for the Permanent
Loan Period. Provided the

                                       3

<PAGE>
conditions precedent for the advance of the Permanent Loan are satisfied (in
accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement), if the Borrower elects a five
(5) year Permanent Loan Period, the "Maturity Date" shall be the first day of
the sixtieth (60th) month following the Conversion Date. Provided the conditions
precedent for the advance of the Permanent Loan are satisfied (in accordance
with the terms of the Loan Agreement), if the Borrower elects a ten (10) year
Permanent Loan Period, the "Maturity Date" shall be the first day of the one
hundred twentieth (120th) month following the Conversion Date.

7. REPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL. If the Borrower fails to satisfy the conditions
precedent to the advance of the Permanent Loan (in accordance with the terms of
the Loan Agreement) by December 1, 2006, the outstanding Principal Sum
(constituting the Construction Loan) shall become due and payable without notice
or demand by the Bank to the Borrower on such date. Provided the conditions
precedent for the advance of the Permanent Loan are satisfied (in accordance
with the terms of the Loan Agreement), during the Permanent Loan Period,
Borrower shall pay the Principal Sum owing pursuant to this Note to the Bank in
installments as follows:

      (a) if the Borrower elects a five (5) year Permanent Loan Period, the
Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum in sixty (60) consecutive
monthly installments each being due and payable on the first day of each month
commencing with the first month following the Conversion Date; consisting of
fifty-nine (59) consecutive level monthly installments of principal due and
payable commencing on the first day of each month commencing with the first
month following the Conversion Date, with each installment being in the amount
that would result in the Principal Sum outstanding under this Note on the
Conversion Date being fully paid if amortized over the Period of Amortization,
and ONE (1) FINAL INSTALLMENT on the Maturity Date in an amount equal to the
outstanding Principal Sum at that time together with all other amounts
outstanding hereunder including, without limitation, accrued interest, costs and
Expenses.

      (b) if the Borrower elects a ten (10) year Permanent Loan Period, the
Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum in one hundred twenty (120)
consecutive monthly installments each being due and payable on the first day of
each month commencing with the first month following the Conversion Date;
consisting of one hundred nineteen (119) consecutive level monthly installments
of principal due and payable commencing on the first day of each month
commencing with the first month following the Conversion Date, with each
installment being in the amount that would result in the Principal Sum
outstanding under this Note on the Conversion Date being fully paid if amortized
over the Period of Amortization, and ONE (1) FINAL INSTALLMENT on the Maturity
Date in an amount equal to the outstanding Principal Sum at that time together
with all other amounts outstanding hereunder including, without limitation,
accrued interest, costs and Expenses.

      (c) Since the period of time from the Conversion Date to the Maturity Date
is less than the Period of Amortization, there will be a balloon payment of
principal due on the Maturity Date. Absent manifest error, the Bank's
determination of the final installment shall be conclusive.

                                       4

8. LATE CHARGE. If Borrower fails to pay the whole or any installment of
principal or interest owing pursuant to this Note, the Deed of Trust or the Loan
Agreement including any Escrow payment owing pursuant to the Deed of Trust or
the Loan Agreement within ten (10) days of its due date, Borrower shall
immediately pay to the Bank a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the
delinquent amount.

9. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Payment made under this Note may be applied in any
order in the sole discretion of the Bank, but prior to a Default or maturity,
each payment shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, next to
Principal, next to the Escrow, next to late charges, and finally to Expenses.

10. PREPAYMENT. The Borrower may prepay any, all or any portion of the Principal
Sum, at any time from time to time, and any such prepayment need not be
accompanied by payment of interest on the amount prepaid except, that any
prepayment which constitutes a final payment of all of the Principal Sum shall
be accompanied by payment of all interest thereon accrued through the date of
prepayment.

connection with the construction and the financing of improvements to be
constructed on the real property described in the Deed of Trust, and Borrower
represents and warrants that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is for a
business purpose, and that this Note evidences a commercial loan and an

interest thereon, and all other Obligations then outstanding to be immediately
due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be forthwith due and
payable by the Borrower to the Bank, without presentment, demand, protest or

that, in the case of any Default referred to in subsections (d) and (e) of
Section 12 above, the Outstanding Principal Amount, together with accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations then outstanding shall be
automatically and immediately due and payable by the Borrower to the Bank
without notice, presentment, demand, protest or other action of any kind, all of

      c) ILLEGALITY. If the Bank shall determine that the introduction of any
law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination
of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or
administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other
governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for the Bank to make
loans at based on LIBOR then, on notice thereof by the Bank to Borrower, the
Bank may suspend the maintaining of the loan hereunder at the LIBOR Rate until
the Bank shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such

unlawful to maintain the loan hereunder based on LIBOR, the Bank may convert the
